Disclosed herein is an apparatus and method for measuring quality of audio. The apparatus includes a distorted signal generation unit, an extraction unit, a distortion level measurement unit, a distortion function generation unit, and a search and measurement unit. The distorted signal generation unit generates a plurality of distorted signals with respect to audio in compliance. The extraction unit extracts a fingerprint and AV information corresponding to the audio and fingerprints and AV information corresponding to the plurality of distorted signals. The distortion level measurement unit measures fingerprint distance differences, and arousal and valence (AV) distance differences. The distortion function generation unit generates a fingerprint distortion function and an AV distortion function. The search and measurement unit measures the quality of the audio by extracting a fingerprint and AV information from query audio and then comparing extraction results with the fingerprint distortion function or AV distortion function.

An apparatus for extracting features from a video includes a frame rate converter for performing a frame rate conversion on the video to a preset frame rate, a gray scale converter for performing a grey scale conversion on the frame rate-converted video, a frame size normalizer for performing a frame size normalization on the gray scale-converted video to a preset image size, and a feature extractor for partitioning the normalized video into image blocks of a predetermined size, and extracting features from the image blocks on the basis of luminance values of the image blocks. A video identification system employs the feature extracting apparatus to identify an original video and an object video.

A music search apparatus using an emotion model includes a music database (DB) for storing sound source data about a plurality of pieces of music and Arousal-Valence (AV) coefficients of the respective pieces of music. An emotion model generation unit classifies different emotion types into a plurality of groups, and generates an emotion classification model from using respective probability distributions of the plurality of groups for an AV coefficient plane. A music search unit identifies an emotion type from using information entered by a user when a music search request is received, detects an AV coefficient range for designating an AV coefficient corresponding to the identified emotion type from using the emotion classification model, and searches the music DB for music corresponding to the AV coefficient range.

A method for managing digital videos includes extracting a feature of an input digital video, searching for candidate features having similarity to the extracted feature, and comparing the extracted feature with each of the candidate features to select at least one of the candidate features similar to the extracted feature and provide information on a digital video corresponding to the selected candidate feature.

System and method for comparing an input digital video to digital videos using extracted and candidate video features

The present invention relates to a system for scene change detection including a decoder decoding input digital video data into video data compressed by a single codec or uncompressed video data in a codec-independent format, a normalizer normalizing the video data decoded by the decoder in a temporally and spatially uniform format, and a scene change detector computing a mode ratio for each frame of the normalized video data through a mode determination, and determining, when a frame has a mode ratio higher than a preset threshold value, that a scene change has occurred at the frame. The decoder decodes video data compression-coded by various video codecs into uncompressed video frames.

System and method for detecting scene change

An index database creating apparatus includes a feature extracting unit for extracting features from a content; an index creating unit for creating feature indices of the extracted features; an index selector for selecting one or more of the feature indices based on frequency-based importance levels thereof; and a feature index database for storing therein the selected feature indices along with locations thereof in the content. The index selector obtains the frequency-based importance levels based on frequency distributions of the feature indices in the content and in other contents to be stored in the feature index database.
